railway com pany to-day for personal damages in the sum of $15,000. Jones was a superin tendent of postal clerks on the Santa Fe and was injured in a wreck on that road on October 24 last at Paulus Hill, near Topeka. In his petition he alleges that his ribs were broken, that he was hurt internally, that his head was bruised and a 1 ma ma injuries are permanent in meir character. The wreck, so he alleges, was due to the carelessness of the com pany's employes in handling the tram. For these injuries the plaintiff asks judgment in the sum of $15,000 Jones lives at 500 Dugarro avenue, this city.

Collins, was the widow of F.C Elk ins, atone time a well- to-do farmer living about six miles west of the city.

TorEKA, Nov. 29. Prof. Robert Hay, Chief Geologist of the Department of Agriculture at Washington, has made a preliminary report of his investigations regarding the water supply available for irrigation in the region between the meridian 97 degrees and the foot hills of the mountains. The professor says that there is no doubt about the underflow existing in a quantity available for irrigation in the larger valleys of the West It is also true that to some extent it exists in the valley, as rivers of the plains, such as the Republican and the Red rivers, do not originate in the mountains.

Whether the term can be extended so as to include the sheet water that supplies the wells on the high prairies of Western Nebraska and Kansas and Eastern Col orado and New Mexico has yet to be determined. That there is much water available for irrigation underlying the semi-arid region interested in the investigation is certain. It is believed that over extensive regions enough water can be raised to irrigate from five to twenty-five acres on every quarter section, and if further investigation verifies this, and the cost of using it is not too great, it means that farms may be made to pay by a judicious selection of crops, where otherwise only cattle could graze. The prospects of Western Kansas will be materially brightened by irrigation. A glance at the map shows but one mountain river, the Arkansas, flowing through the State.

The other rivers are of local origin, arising on the plains. In the northern section of extreme Western Kansas, extending over about eight counties, are the Republican, Beaver, Sappa and Prairie Dog rivers, flowing north into the Republican in Nebraska. In the middle section is the Smoky and tributary creeks. Then comes the Arkansas, and south of that the Cimarron and its branches. It is probable that all these will prove useful to irrigation, rendering the settler of Western Kansas independent of rainfall, and prosperous in spite of drought.

CONNECTION JHDK. The Chicago. St. Paul aod Kaunas City Uoad Joins the Kock Inland. At Beverly Junction yesterday after' noon the new tracks of the Chicago, St Paul and Kansas City Railway company were connected with the Rock Island tracks, over which the "Maple Leaf" trains will cross the Missouri river and enter Leavenworth.

From that city the "Maple Leaf trains will reach Kansas City, Kansas, over the Northwestern. A large crowd of people were present, including the officials of the road, and the driving of the last spike was made the occasioa of a great demonstration. The company will have its depots and terminals in Kansas City. Kansas, and Leavenworth completed by the end of the year, and by January 1, 1891, it will be ready to do a big business. A party consisting of C.

Shields, general superintendent of the road. St Paul; J. Berlingett. superintendent of St. Joseph and Des Moines divisions, and C.

R. Berry, traveling freight fgent, were in the city yesterday looking oyer the property on Wood street where their freight and passenger depot and switches are to be made. The gentlemen were anxious to have the work, which has been delayed by the Northwettern bridge disaster, proceed as fast as possible. It was learned that the company would have six daily passenger trains running over the new liue by January 1. The trains from the north will arrive at about 9 a.

3 p. m. and 6 p. while those nut of the city will leave at about 8 a. 12 m.

and 6 p. m. The company proposes to have a dining car attached to each train between St. Joseph and Kansas City, Kansas, which will be an excellent feature. With the construction of the proposed Omaha line the Chicago and St.

Paul will become one of the most powerful systems in the west, touching Chicago, St. faul. Minneapolis, Des Moines. Omaha, St. Jo seph, Leavenworth and Kansas City.

JACCAR Oct 13-Jan 1 Wall Paper Room Mouldings. Mr. Charles Francis Adams, who resigned the presidency of the Union Pacific, has large property interests in this city and in Argentine, but he does not own a con trolling interest in either the stock yards or the smelter.

The statement that the Union Pacific road has, through Mr. Ad ams, aided the stock yards company 19 untrue. Mr. C. F.

Morse, general manager of the stock yards company, in an interview with a reporter for a Missouri side con temporary, says: "The cattle rates of the Union Pacific have never been any more favorable to Kansas City than those of other roads All of the roads running into Kansas City have made rates which would secure the business, and it has never been necessary for the Union Pacific to make any con cessions, as Kansas City is the eastern terminus of its Kansas division, and the only live stock market which it reaches. We have never had any business with the main line of the Union Pacific, as the stock from that part of the road goes to Omaha and Chicago. This is the situation in a nutshell. By reason of the close proximity of the Kan sas City, Kansas, stock yards to the great cattle ranges of the west and southwest, together with her unequaled railroad fa cilities. this city has built up the second live stock market of the world.

Mr. Gould's idea is to haul the cattle over the Missouri Pacific to St. Louis and build up a market in that city. But with Kansas City on theMissouri river and Chicago on the lake. St.

Louis can never hope to be th leading market of the west. In regard to the alleged discrimination in favor of the smelting works, President A. K. Meyers states that the contrary is true, for the Union Pacific had long dis criminated aeaiust Kansas City and in favor of the Omaha smelter. THE LIGHTNING ROD MES.

A Trio of Fakes Said to be Doing Farmers of Wyandotte County. the A couple of prominent farmers, living in Quindaro township, called this morn ing, and gave us the inside operations of a trio of lightning rod peddlers who seem to be doing Wyandotte county at this time. The gentlemanly lightning rod man, in order to save the expense of legitimate advertising, proposes to a far mer to rod his house or barn on unusual terms provided he will not tell his neigh bors. In the instance related to us, the agent in his anxiety to introduce his rod in the neighborhood though the high standing of the contemplated victim offers to throw in 106 feet of rod, making the job cost the reasonable sum of $7.50. The contract contains some mysterious words about points and braces counting 20 feet each ot rod.

ihe jod was done and the agent figured up the modest bill of $200 due. Much bluffing was resorted to to get the farmer note, and finally the claim was made that the contract pre viously signed was a note, mere are three who work the county. The sec ond gentleman who called had a similar experience, but he had caught on and warned the men not to put the rod up. In the case of the gentleman who got the rod and from whom $200 is wanted, he too had been warned, but the prompt and enthusiastic rod men got there while he was about fifty yards from the house, and before he could get up to them they had the house covered. We tell this story that our friends in the country may look out for the lightning rod men.

The moral to this is, do your business with some established man or home insti tution, and let tramps alone. THE HOME OF THE FRIENDLESS. The Women's Benerolent Association Re ceive Generous Aid.
